The iPhone 18 Pro’s big camera update is all about the small gains

Last week, Apple announced an iPhone unlike any it has made in the past. An iPhone that has seemingly already led several other phone manufacturers to pursue entirely different designs for their flagship products. A remarkably distinct device with the kind of "I can't believe they did that" software touches that Apple sometimes pulls off […]

Nintendo opens up Fire Emblem with the gigantic Fortune’s Weave

Nintendo has gotten quite good at making open-ended games. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild upended the idea of what a Zelda game could be by giving the player free rein to tackle any part of the map, a philosophy iterated upon with Tears of the Kingdom. On the Switch 2 this idea […]

Xreal’s well-rounded 1S glasses are back down to their lowest price

USB-C-connected video glasses are a lot of fun if you want to see your games, movies (or just your computer screen) on a large, immersive virtual screen. One of the most well-rounded pairs out there, Xreal’s 1S, has returned to their lowest price yet, costing $399 at Amazon and via Xreal itself ($50 off). The […]

The sexy AI-powered dating app scams are here

Security researcher Matthew "Zigula" Gore-Kormanik was analyzing a fraudulent dating app called Dora when he got a pop-up message saying he was receiving a call from Jennifer. According to her bio, she's a 41-year-old Sagittarius with red hair, blue eyes, and piercings. She likes music, horror movies, nightlife, and sports. Gore-Kormanik answered the call, but […]

IFTTT accepted our service on the first try. The flow broke on the first redirect.

Last week I was bringing Publora onto IFTTT. Our server was already live, OAuth was working, and the API was there. I expected most of the work to be filling in their application and getting through review. The application passed on the first try, in under a day instead of the estimated one to two weeks. The actual integration broke on the first authorization redirect. Here's what I ran into. The OAuth that didn't line up The first problem showed up immediately. IFTTT se...

Debugging Docker Crash Loops: A Practical Guide

TL;DR: A Docker crash loop occurs when a containerized process repeatedly exits with a non-zero code (like exit code 1), prompting Docker to restart it. By persisting state via volume mounts, developers can inspect crash logs across restarts and resolve the underlying bugs to achieve a clean exit code 0. I often think about the climax of Marvel's Doctor Strange when dealing with broken deployments. Strange traps the interdimensional entity Dormammu in an infinite time loop: Strange dies, t...

Open Source vs Proprietary LLMs: A Practical Comparison for Modern AI Projects

Open Source vs Proprietary LLMs: A Practical Comparison for Modern AI Projects Introduction – Why the Open‑Source vs Proprietary Debate Matters Large language models (LLMs) are advanced AI systems trained on vast datasets to understand and generate human-like text, becoming a cornerstone of modern software development in 2024. As these tools move from experimental prototypes to production environments, the choice between open-source and proprietary models has emerged as a critic...

How to Build a Lightning‑Fast TypeScript Lambda that Calls Claude, Using esbuild and tsc --noEmit

Developers waste minutes watching TypeScript compile before every Lambda deploy, even though the code never runs with types. By swapping ts-node for a combined esbuild + tsc --noEmit pipeline, you keep full type safety and slash build time. The result is a Lambda that talks to Claude with zero‑runtime overhead. Why the Traditional ts-node/tsc Build Is a Bottleneck When you write a Lambda in TypeScript you usually run ts-node (a tool that compiles on‑the‑fly) during local test...

Is There Actually a Game That Requires Blockchain?

In my previous post, I started with a question: What happens if we forget about coins, NFTs, Play-to-Earn, and all the other things commonly associated with blockchain games, and start with only Blockchain + Game? That left me with a harder question: Is there actually a game that requires blockchain? So I started looking at some of the obvious examples. Axie Infinity Axie Infinity was the first one that came to mind. Axies can be collected, battled, bred, owned...

IP-Management für KMU: Von der Idee zum Unternehmenswert

Geistiges Eigentum schützt mehr als nur Innovationen. Strategisch gesteuert kann es Marktposition, Ertrag und langfristigen Unternehmenswert stärken. Kleine und mittlere Unternehmen (KMU) sind häufig hochinnovativ. Neue Technologien, spezialisierte Verfahren, prägnante Marken, Produktdesigns, Software und wertvolles Know-how entstehen oft unmittelbar aus der täglichen Arbeit. In vielen Unternehmen wird geistiges Eigentum jedoch erst dann zur Priorität, wenn ein Wettbewerber eine Idee über...

We launched on Product Hunt. Nobody came, and the dashboard said otherwise five times.

Puzzle Press, a browser tool that makes print-ready puzzle books for Amazon KDP, launched on Product Hunt at 2:01am Central on 15 September. It was built by an autonomous agent, and the agent wrote its plan for the day the night before "because the hours after a launch are the wrong time to decide anything." It also wrote what success would look like, so it could not move the goalposts afterwards: The real result: one stranger pays $19. That has never happened. … The likely result: some tra...

Running an AI Agent Locally: ADK, Gemma 4, and Docker Model Runner

This article was originally published on Medium (Google Cloud Community) . Cloud LLMs are great for production. But during development, every API call has latency, costs money, and requires credentials. What if the LLM ran on your machine, right next to your agent? In my previous article , I built a football statistics agent using Google ADK , BigQuery MCP via Cloud API Registry, and Gemini 2.5 Flash as the LLM — deployed to Cloud Run and Vertex AI Agent Engine. In this articl...

"Nobody designed the frontmatter"

I open any file in these repos in VS Code, and before the first heading the Outline panel shows a block of names: title , numero , date , sesion_fuente , fecha_creacion , description , tags , destacado , slug . This post carries those nine at the top, and will gain a tenth once it's published. Yesterday I asked myself who decided each one. Short answer: nobody, all at once. That block is the frontmatter : a few key: value lines between two --- at the top of a Markdown file. It i...
